Home Owner's Association

Our Home Owner's Association (HOA) is a legal entity that was formed, as required by Nevada Revised Statute, after the construction of our community in 2000.  The purpose of the association is to maintain and improve the community and its common areas and to preserve the neighborhood's quality and feel as a welcoming, fun, and family-orientated neighborhood.  Furthermore, it is the goal of the association to ensure the neighborhood does not deteriorate, thereby preserve and protect the neighborhood's property value.

The HOA Board of Directors' are residents of the community.  Board members are elected by their neighbors to serve the functions of the association for terms of two years. While board members have opportunity to participate in many fun aspects of the community, such as organizing events, many duties are less alluring.  These include maintaining the budget and ensuring enough funds are coming in to pay for maintenance and projects, dealing with disgruntled residents, and overseeing the upkeep of common areas and landscaping.  Board members often volunteer countless hours of their own time performing hard work out of goodwill for the community.

In the sections below, you will find provisions and rules of the community.  These are the trade-offs for the advantages of living within an association.  Homeowner's give up some freedoms and property rights in order to maintain the look and feel that the community was originally built around.  These rules act in the best interest of the homeowners to maintain their investment though property values and to allow homeowners to use and enjoy their property without annoyance, distraction, or offensive use by their neighbors that falls short of being an actual violation of any existing law.

Covenants, Conditions, & Restrictions (CC&R)

Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions are the rules of the neighborhood.  They describe the requirements and limitations about what you can do with your property.  The goal of the CC&Rs is to protect, preserve, and enhance property values in the community.  Most of the time, the rules make sense and are easy to accept.  Residents have to comply these rules at all times, and one of the primary functions of the HOA is to ensure that all homeowners do just that.

Architectural Standards and Guidelines

The purpose of these standards and guidelines is to preserve the architectural style established by the builders in the construction of the homes in the community.  Any exterior improvements or modifications that a homeowner plans for their lot must be reviewed and approved by the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) prior to any work commencing.  The installation or construction of improvements, which have not been approved, is a violation of the CC&Rs and is subject to action by the Board of Directors. 

Did you know?

The association has 12 color schemes that you are allowed to paint your house. You can view the palettes below or see them in person at the local Home Depot paint department located at N 5th Street and Deer Springs. Remember, after you decide on one of the color palettes, it is still mandatory to fill out an ARC request before having your home painted.

The paint used to color the community cinderblock walls is “Deep Base Flat Masonry, Stucco and Brick Exterior Paint” tinted to “Barely Dawn” also available from Home Depot.

Dues and Budget

To pay for the services provided by the association, homeowners are assessed a monthly fee.   This fee pays for the management of the association, monthly services (such as landscape maintenance), and the remaining money goes into a reserve fund to save for long-term projects and replacements.  Reserve funds also cover emergency expenses that arise from time to time.
